About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and develop robust embedded Linux applications and background services for industrial monitoring, control, diagnostics, communication, and data management on ARM-based platforms, ensuring reliable operation, maintainability, and production readiness.
Support Linux platform customization, BSP integration, image generation, peripheral enablement, boot configuration, and board bring-up activities using Yocto/OpenEmbedded, vendor SDKs, or Torizon-based development environments.
Develop and maintain reliable industrial communication services using Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, RS485, UART, Ethernet, and TCP/IP while ensuring fault tolerance, communication integrity, and seamless integration with external monitoring and control systems.
Develop and maintain a lightweight embedded web interface for local configuration, commissioning, diagnostics, alarm review, and service access, including secure authentication, REST APIs, and real-time system visibility.
Implement alarm management, event handling, historical logging, and fault reporting functions that support system visibility, traceability, service diagnostics, controlled recovery, and long-term operational stability.
Integrate software with digital and analog I/O, serial interfaces, watchdogs, RTCs, and other hardware peripherals while supporting system diagnostics, troubleshooting, validation, and manufacturing test activities.
Develop and support local operator interfaces using Qt/QML or equivalent technologies, ensuring seamless integration between display functions, system status, alarms, diagnostics, and configuration workflows.
Apply software engineering best practices including code reviews, testing, debugging, version control, documentation, and release management to deliver maintainable and production-quality embedded software.
